MB Technology’s SBS Shingle Starter is a premium SBS modified starter strip completely coated on both sides with SBS rubberized asphalt compound and surfaced with black ceramic granules. The SBS rubberized membrane provides a flexible starter roll and, because it’s non-porous, it provides a watertight membrane by itself. The fiberglass-reinforced product is used for eave and rake starter material for composition roofing. It is used with minimum 3/8-inch head roofing nails, fastened 12 inches on center and at 4 to 6 inches above the edge of the roof or as required by the shingle manufacturer.

Saiz Tool Co. was established in 2005 with an idea that there must be an easier way to cut the thick shingles that were on the market. As it has become more and more difficult to cut thick composition shingles with the old comp knife, the company’s owner—who has been in the roofing business since 1972—developed the Saiz Shingle Cutting Tool.

The Saiz Shingle Cutting Tool easily cuts the various different thicknesses of composition shingles, as well as many other roofing-related materials.
